Beargwöhnt und benötigt: Westemigranten zwischen USA-Exil und DDR

Principal investigator Martin Sabrow (Principal Investigator)
Description
Ziel des Buchprojektes mit dem Arbeitstitel "Beargwöhnt und benötigt: Westemigranten zwischen USA-Exil und DDR" ist die Untersuchung von Lebenswegen deutscher kommunistischer Emigranten, die nach 1945 nach Ostdeutschland zurückkehrten, um dort eine sozialistische Gesellschaft aufzubauen. Die Materialgrundlage bilden zu einem großen Teil Archivalia aus den USA und Deutschland, darunter Akten des FBI sowie Personalakten aus dem Bundesarchiv und der BStU. Das Projekt möchte den individuellen und kollektiven Erfahrungen nachgehen, wie sie sich im Leben und Werk dieser ostdeutschen Kommunisten niederschlugen.Die hier zu behandelnde Gruppe umfasst etwa vierzig Akteure (rund siebzig unter Einschluss der Angehörigen), die zwischen 1938 und 1945-48 in den USA lebten. Zu ihr gehörten prominente, auch berühmte Schriftsteller, Künstler und Wissenschaftler wie Bertolt Brecht, Ernst Bloch, Hanns und Gerhart Eisler, Henryk Grossmann, Stefan Heym, Alfred Kantorowicz und Samuel Mitja Rapoport. Nicht alle waren Mitglieder der KPD, aber alle gehörten zu Netzwerken, die um die Partei herum bestanden. Inwieweit die doppelte Wahrnehmung der USA als Zufluchtsland wie als Gesellschaft rigider Rassentrennung ihre Urteile über das Land beeinflusste, wird ebenfalls diskutiert.In Ostdeutschland waren die Rückkehrer willkommen. Sie wurden benötigt, doch zugleich waren und blieben sie beargwöhnt. Ihre Fähigkeiten auf wissenschaftlichem und künstlerischem Gebiet waren von ihren Exilerfahrungen im Hauptland des "westlichen Imperialismus" nicht zu trennen. Die sogenannten Westemigranten mussten sich in einer Gesellschaft einrichten, deren Normen vorrangig von solchen Kommunisten vorgegeben wurden, die aus der Sowjetunion zurückgekehrt waren oder die Nazizeit in Konzentrationslagern oder Zuchthäusern überlebt hatten. Während viele Rückkehrer aus den USA in den Bereichen Literatur, Kunst und Wissenschaft oder in den Medien sehr erfolgreich waren, schlugen nur sehr wenige, genannt sei Albert Norden, die politische Laufbahn ein.Zentrale Fragen der geplanten Monographie sind: 1.) Welche Entwürfe für ein Nachkriegsdeutschland entwickelte das kommunistische Exil in den USA?2.) Warum entschieden sich die Remigranten im Zeitalter des Systemkonfliktes für die SBZ/DDR und nicht für die Bundesrepublik?3.) Erzeugte die Exilerfahrung ein gemeinsames "kulturelles Gepäck", das die Westemigranten als Gruppe in der DDR erkennbar oder verdeckt gemeinsam prägte?4.) Wie schlug sich die Kaderpolitik der SED mitsamt den politischen "Säuberungen" der 1950er Jahren in den individuellen Erfahrungen und Handlungsspielräumen der Remigranten nieder? Welche Positionen errangen oder behaupteten sie in späteren Jahren?

Hochqualifizierte Ausländer in nordrhein-westfälischen Städten

Principal investigator Carmella Pfaffenbach (Principal Investigator ), Günther Weiss (Principal Investigator ), Claus-Christian Wiegandt (Principal Investigator )
Description
- Zur Eingliederung der Migranten in die städtischen Gesellschaften vor dem Hintergrund kommunaler Integrations- und Internationalisierungspolitiken In dem beantragten Forschungsvorhaben soll untersucht werden, in welcher Weise sich hochqualifizierte Migranten in die Stadtgesellschaften eingliedern. Die Eingliederung wird zum einen aus der Perspektive der Migranten und zum anderen aus Sicht der Akteure der kommunalen Integrationspolitik beleuchtet. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die Fragen, welche Strategien die Migranten zur Eingliederung entwickeln, welche Netzwerke vor Ort geknüpft werden und wie der neue städtische Raum wahrgenommen und genutzt wird. Auf kommunaler Ebene werden die städtischen Integrations- und Internationalisierungspolitiken sowie die Entwicklung entsprechender Maßnahmen oder Angebote für diese Gruppe untersucht. Durch die Betrachtung verschiedener Berufsgruppen in den vier Untersuchungsstädten Bonn, Düsseldorf, Essen und Köln wird ermöglicht, die Eingliederungsprozesse unter verschiedenen Rahmenbedingungen zu untersuchen. Auf Basis von qualitativen Interviews wird die Situation ausländischer „Bohemiens“ (u.a. Künstler und Publizisten) und „kreativer Professionals“ (u.a. Manager, leitende Angestellte) erarbeitet. Die Perspektive der kommunalen Ebene wird durch Gespräche mit Experten aus den Stadtverwaltungen und Interessenvertretungen und zudem durch ein Monitoring der Integrationspolitik untersucht. Konzeptionell verknüpft die Untersuchung individuelle Handlungsperspektiven der Migranten mit der Ebene der kommunalen Politik.

Ambiguity in Foreign Language Vocabulary Learning

Description
Understanding the pattern of interactions between the languages of multilingual speakers, and the mechanisms supporting efficient learning of a foreign-language are imperative in today's global society. For one, the majority of individuals in the world use more than one language in their daily lives. Second, many individuals are required to learn a foreign-language as adults, to be able to acquire higher education, to advance in the work place, and the like. Developing efficient instruction methods is thus an essential endeavour. The proposed work will address both of these issues, focusing on learning and representation of words. The mapping between lexical-form and word meaning(s) is often ambiguous both within a language and across languages. Such indirect mappings pose particular difficulty for vocabulary learning, because learners need to achieve stable links between the to-be-learned lexical form and an unequivocal specification of its meaning. The proposed project focuses on this challenge, and examines it's consequences for first-language representation. The first objective is therefore to explore the consequences of foreign-language vocabulary learning on meaning representation of first-language words. Such backward influences are theoretically important because they speak to the dynamic and interconnected nature of the bilingual lexicon. The second objective is to improve foreign-language vocabulary learning by (1) identifying ambiguity types that create challenges for learning, and (2) test different instruction methods tailored at alleviating the difficulty associated with these ambiguity types. The third objective is to examine how learner's characteristics interact with this particular complexity. We focus on (1) individual differences in working memory span and the ability to ignore irrelevant information and on (2) language experience, comparing how monolingual and multilingual speakers deal with ambiguity in learning.
